Great Course

Played Whipsnade for the first time on Friday 22nd Sept with my eldest son. We were both very surprised after travelling along some very narrow lanes to find such a lovely course with practice areas and a lovely converted building into a clubhouse / bar / restuarante. Booked online as a 2 ball and had a great deal teeing off at 3.30pm. However when asking if we could T off early (as it didnt appear busy) the reception was a little offhand and we were curtly told that we had to wait and play with 2 other people as a 4 ball and that was why we had such a good Green Fee.!!! I recommend that this should be made clear at the point of online booking. However we waited and the guys didnt turn up the obligatory 5 mins before T time so we followed a single player and had a great round of golf despite the heavens opening up when we got to the 2nd T. Thunder and lightning imediately overhead but there was no siren - so we played on and it was great that we did. The round consisted of sunshine and showers and some brilliant golf by my son James. The holes are all individual tree lined fairways so you were immersed in the hole you are playing. 5 x par 5's, 9 x par 4's - 5 of which are close to 400yds, 4 x par 3's over a course yardage of 6393.
We played the front nine in 1.1/2 hrs and the back nine in 1.3/4 hrs helped in part by James' great scoring. Playing off 8 and only 6 times a year he carded a Gross 3 over 76 dragging his old Dad along for the ride. Overall a great golf course, nicely maintained with very good consistant greens. Fairways are lovely and soft underfoot (grass - not wet soil) so the ball is sat up nicely.
I would totally recommend any one in the area to come and play the course. I play for our Seniors team and travel to many golf courses and this stands well above many that I have played.
My only other recomendation is that the scorecard is available online. Whilst the video is great most golfers love to view the card before we decide to play a course.

What a course

Absolutely fantastic course, long off the tee but with wide well maintained fairways. The greens are immaculate true and very fast. Add to that the very welcoming staff and fellow players, definitely worth a visit.

Nice track, worth a visit

Played yesterday and had a great game on a testing track, especially in the wind! Our four all had a nip and tuck game and thoroughly enjoyed the course. Played here a few times and although it's a bit of a track to get to we will return

Always a great condition course

Always kept immaculate. If you pay full price guest price it is starting to get a little pricey.

A little gem

First time I've played this and really glad I did. It's a lovely course and well worth a visit. The layout is very good and the course conditions were v.good. Greens rolled very well and very consistent (and surprisingly fast). Not the most difficult course, but it's not a really forgiving course either. I came off with 3 doubles, which is the most in 2 seasons - play off 8.

Good Course

Course generally in very good nick, though some of the tee areas a little scruffy. Course would benefit visitors better if signage provided for next hole tee areas.
